Hello!
It seems that /usr/share/locale is keeping files for many languages not
of any use to me: around 200MB in total.
Is there a way to configure this away that I am not aware of?
There was a thread a few months ago about this problem. Apparently
quite a few packages ignore any LC settings and just install all of
their *.mo files every time.
Someone recommended app-admin/localepurge, which removes them after
installation. Reclaims hundreds of MB when I run it every month or
so.
